One step forward, two steps back. Sigh.  So, the child abuse people screwed up and only sent one certified copy of our abuse background check letters instead of the two that were requested.  Took 7 weeks to get the first set.  Hopefully it doesn't take another 7 weeks to get duplicate copies.  Also found out today that the USCIS has an issue with some small part of our homestudy and are asking that we amend our homestudy report to include some little thing.  Will contact our homestudy agency tomorrow and see how quickly they can get this done.  Will likely require another social worker visit which means more time, and more money. Altogether, very frustrated, but trudging onward....  One day, we will look back and laugh.  Well, probably not laugh.  I can't find anything laughable about how inept this whole process is.   Happy New Years blogging world.  Hopefully a new year means progress...
